Leica
Microsystems, world-leading providers of
Total
Digital Pathology solutions, are a proud platinum sponsor of this year's
joint workshop of the Society for
Hematopathology and the European Association for Haematopathology (SH/EAHP)
being held at the Ritz-Carlton Marina Del Rey, Los Angeles, USA, from October
27-29, 2011.
With a record number of case submissions and registered
delegates, this year's SH/EAHP Workshop promises to be an exciting meeting for
physicians who are interested in the field of "Cutaneous Lymphomas and Their
Mimics", the topic of the Workshop. In addition to an impressive agenda of
presentations from world-leading experts, attendees of the Workshop will be
able to access cases for review online before, during and after the meeting.
From over
300 cases submitted to the Workshop, 120 have been selected by the Workshop
Panel for inclusion in the Workshop Book. Attendees will be able to access
scanned slides of these 120 cases via the internet using Leica Microsystems'
digital pathology educational software,
SlidePath
Digital SlideBox. The scanned images are high resolution scans of the whole
glass slides generated using the Leica SCN400. Furthermore, the Workshop
attendees can view PowerPoint and Word documents files of all submitted and
accepted cases on the Workshop Case Server, providing rich content for the
Workshop discussions.
The
Workshop attendees with iPads will be able to access and review the high
resolution scans of the glass slides through Leica Microsystems' digital pathology
application, SlidePath Gateway.
Dr. Sophie
Song, Organizing Committee Chair, SH/EAHP Workshop 2011 says, "We are very
happy to have Leica Microsystems as one of our platinum sponsors for this
event. The image quality of the
Leica
SCN400 scanned slides coupled with the ease of use of Digital SlideBox
makes Leica's Total Digital Pathology system ideal for supporting our workshop.
Attendees will really benefit from being able to readily access the cases,
either through their internet browser or on the iPad."
Registered
attendees will receive information on how to access the Workshop Case Server
through both Digital SlideBox and the iPad.
For
non-attendees, sample images of the Leica SCN400 digital slide scanner can be
seen in the Virtual Slide Gallery at
